Calibration

Calibration spot

The calibration spot moves up and down as the calstage is moved. To move the calibration stage left/right one needs to adjust one of the screws on the mirror mount for the mirror in front of the Shelyak. I believe that turning the top screw CW (from behind the mirror) moves the spot to the right.

Best focus for calibration spot determined by looking at image cross-sections at different focus values.

With iodine cell out:

With iodine cell in:

From on-sky tests, focus with iodine is 4625 microns farther back than without iodine. Calibration channel focus seems consistent with this.
